Vuvzuelas aka 'Freedom Horns'

At the beginning of the protests they just didn't seem loud enough, so one fateful Sunday night at Maduro (where I dj every week) some friends & I were talking about how vuvuzuelas would be a great way to ramp up the volume. I made an initial order of 100 Badger Red ones & gave them away at cost. I ordered 100 more and from here on out I've been known as the 'vuvuzuela guy' for better or for worse. Glad my love of soccer was good for something!

Here's a few stories about it.

The Vuvuzela, a cultural symbol or an annoying plastic horn, or both? 

Kicking it off...

So I decided to start a blog because my Facebook page was getting a bit out of control and so many of the items I've posted over the past several months were getting lost in the news feed with no easy way to find them again. I figured this way people could use my blog as a resource tool to hopefully find the stories they're looking for. In February I wrote an un-edited note on Facebook that I shared with my friends. One of our local newsweeklies, Isthmus, picked it up later that day and published it on their website. I felt this would be a good way to kick things off.
